Hello, this is a new STQ notification product that will remind you
to Close inactive incidents within your service area on the
http://weather.gov/spot/monitor/?wfo=grr page
that have been inactive for longer than 15 days.
Why: When the number of active incidents agency-wide reaches 815,
no incidents will plot on the map. When it reaches 825, then
no incidents will appear in the table below the map. The website
becomes unusable for our customers when this happens.
Root Cause: On weather.gov php scripts are allotted a maximum 128 mb
of memory. Loading in information over 815 or more incidents
exceeds the 128 mb max, so data does not appear on website.
Solution: When the number of incidents reaches 750 or higher, I will
transmit this STQ product once an hour until enough incidents
are closed agency-wide. Only offices with inactive incidents
15 days or older will get these STQs, so the easy way to stop
getting these STQ notifications is to close inactive incidents
list below for your area of responsiblity.
Please pass this message on to your Fire Weather Focal Point and MIC,
so they can develop a policy to close inactive incidents on the new
weather.gov/spot website.
